Boom or Bust?
 
Did someone get the steal of the year . . . or not?

Colors look terrible. Bust! (Although $14 is not exactly a lot to go bust on.)

Trimmed reprints?

Double WOOF!

Kaboom!
 
They are real. They were found in the attic of a nuclear power plant which explains the weird glow to the colors.:D

Just kidding those are "tuurrrrrrible" fakes as Charles Barkley would say.

Defient fakes/reprints. As Peterose4hof said though, its hard to go bust on 14 bucks.

normally when someone says that they are as is and that they dont know if they are old or new, it means they know they are new. if they had any chance of being old, the seller would have taken a little time to get them checked out and not risk losing money. i have seen the same with a t206 wagner in the old days of ebay, "i dont know if this possible 100,000 dollar card is real or not, so it is 'as is'" of course they know its not good or they would risk losing a lot of money, so they take a 20,000 dollar bid from someone who is taking a flyer on the wagner, and that is 20 grand more than they had yesterday, for a card that is not going to pan out.

Noticed these and reached out to let them know they are fake, seller decided to keep them going. The backs have the same markings on each, which would indicate to me a cheap copy. Also the fronts are horrible.
